Cetus name meaning:
The name Cetus is of Greek origin and refers to a sea monster in Greek mythology. In mythology, Cetus was a giant sea creature sent by Poseidon to terrorize the kingdom of Ethiopia as punishment for Queen Cassiopeia's boastful claim that her daughter Andromeda was more beautiful than the sea nymphs. In the myth, Andromeda was sacrificed to appease Cetus, but was ultimately saved by the hero Perseus.
For a boy, the name Cetus can symbolize strength, bravery, and triumph over adversity. It can also represent the idea of facing one's fears and overcoming challenges, much like Perseus did in the myth. The name Cetus can serve as a reminder to stay courageous in the face of obstacles and to believe in one's ability to conquer any monsters in life.
